Six dogs pull a two-person sled with a total mass of 220 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow i

s 0.08. The sled accelerates from rest at 0.75 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 12 km/h. a) What is the work done by the dogs in the accelerating phase? b) What is the maximum power output by the dogs? c) What is the pulling force from the dogs (assumed to be horizontal)?

Answer:

a) 2457J

b) 558W

c) 337N

Explanation:

Assuming dogs started from rest.

v=a*t\\t=\frac{a}{v}\\v=12\frac{km}{h}\frac{1000m}{km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}\\\\v=3.3m/s\\\\t=\frac{3.3m/s}{0.75m/s^2}\\t=4.4s

and the displacement is given by:

d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\d=7.3m

Using the energy conservation formula:

K_i+U_i+W_d+W_f=K_f+U_f

Because the motion started from rest the initial kinetic energy is zero, the motion occurred in-ground level so the gravitational energy is zero too.

the work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d*cos(180)\\W_f=0.08*220kg*9.8m/s^2*7.3m*(-1)\\W_f=-1259J

so:

W_d=\frac{1}{2}*220kg*(3.3m/s)^2+1259J\\W_d=2457J

The power is given by:

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\\P=\frac{2457J}{4.4s}\\\\P=558W

and the force exerted by the dogs:

W_d=F_d*d*cos(\theta)\\F_d=\frac{W_d}{d*cos(0)}\\\\F=\frac{2457J}{7.3m*(1)}\\\\F=337N

For a cylindrical capacitor, the capacitance does not depend on which of the following values?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Capacitance of cylindrical capacitor does not depends on the amount of charge on the conductors

Explanation:

Consider a cylindrical capacitor of length L, inner radius R₁ and outer radius R₂, permitivity ε₀ constant then capacitance of cylindrical capacitor is given by:

C=\frac{2\pi \epsilon_{o}L}{ln\frac{R_{2} }{R_{1}} }

From this equation it is clear that capacitance of cylindrical capacitor is independent of the amount of charge on the conductors where as directly  proportional permitivity constant and length of cylinder where as inversely proportional to natural log of ratio of  R₂ and R₁

calculate the amount of work done by a person while taking a bag of mass 100kg to the top of the building hight 10m. The mass of
vredina [299]

Explanation:

Total mass=100+10=110

Total weight=mass×gravitational field strength

=110×10

=1100N

Work done=force×distance

=1100×10

=11000J
